House by Yurbban Trafalgar
Industrial-meets-Mediterranean boutique. Understated and design-conscious without being precious about it. The vibe is more local neighborhood than tourist corridor, despite being steps from El Born and the Gothic Quarter.

Why It Matters
Tablet Hotels-listed boutique with a rooftop plunge pool offering panoramic Barcelona skylines, a complimentary daily wine-and-cheese happy hour, and the quirky all-you-can-eat-and-drink Plat Únic restaurant concept on-site. Part of the Yurbban family, which also runs the neighboring Passage Hotel & Spa — guests get access to that spa and breakfast next door.
Uma House by Yurbban Trafalgar is a design-forward boutique hotel occupying a converted textile factory on one of Barcelona's most gallery-lined streets. The building has industrial bones — think exposed materials, parquet floors, and a distinctive gray-and-yellow color scheme throughout. The real draw is the rooftop: a compact terrace with a plunge pool and far-ranging city views that most Barcelona hotels at this price point simply can't match.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Double
18 sq m rooms overlooking the old city streets or the interior patio. A proper double bed and a desk, with the same clean industrial design language as the rest of the hotel. Two bathroom layouts exist depending on the unit: either fully separate or with sink and mirror integrated into the room.
Double · 18 sqm
Double with Terrace
18 sq m with a private terrace looking out over the traditional Barcelona neighbourhood. King-size bed. The second-floor version overlooks the interior patio; eighth-floor rooms deliver panoramic city views. The step up in price is worth considering for the higher floors.
King · 18 sqmInterior Double
A quieter option for those who want to avoid street noise. Overlooks a small interior courtyard, offering a particularly calm atmosphere. Good pick if you're a light sleeper or just want to tune out the city after long days exploring.
Double
Suite
The hotel's most spacious option at 35 sq m, on the first floor looking onto the patio. King bed plus sofa, with space for a rollaway for a fourth guest. Glass partition separates the shower and WC. Nespresso machine, kettle, minibar, and desk all included. The only room type that comfortably fits a family of four.
King + Sofa · 35 sqm
Tiny
The hotel's own name for their entry-level rooms, and yes, they're small — around 14 sq m. Single bed accessible from one side only. But the layout is efficient, the design is sharp, and nothing essential is missing. No kettle or minibar in this category. Good for solo travelers who plan to spend most of their time out in the city.
Double · 14 sqmTiny with Terrace
Same compact footprint as the Tiny, but with a private terrace — that's the whole point. Technically sleeps two but single occupancy is recommended given the room size. The bed is accessible from one side. A clever trade-off: less indoor space, more outdoor.
Queen · 14 sqmTriple
25 sq m, exterior-facing and soundproofed. Sleeps three adults on a king-size bed plus a sofa bed. There's a Nespresso machine and kettle alongside the standard minibar. One remote for the TV — a fair warning if you're travelling with opinionated companions.
